To receive these federal funds, the United States Department of Education (USDE) requires the school system to survey each student. The Federal Impact Aid Survey window will be open until Monday, November 14, 2022. It is important to complete the survey through the student’s Home Access Center Account.
Steps to complete the form:
- Sign in to the Home Access Center (HAC) and find the Impact Aid Form
- Once logged in, directions to access the online form can be found HERE.
- A video with instructions is available HERE.
- The form can now be accessed in Spanish by clicking on the Globe in the top right-hand corner once the form has been started.

November is the month to show gratitude!
